Older NYC buildings, especially brownstones, apartments, and co-ops built before 1978, often contain lead-based paint that poses serious risks to children, tenants, and renovation crews. At Superior Restoration & Remodeling, Inc., we provide EPA-certified lead abatement and removal services tailored to NYC building codes. Whether you’re remodeling a brownstone, managing a multi-unit property, or preparing a commercial space for occupancy, our team ensures lead is safely removed or encapsulated without putting occupants or workers at risk.

Lead doesn’t just sit on the surface, it flakes, contaminates dust, and harms developing children. If you're planning renovations or managing a pre-1978 property, make sure you're in compliance.

If you live or manage a property built before 1978, there's a real chance lead paint is present beneath layers of newer paint. Disturbing those surfaces without proper precautions can release toxic lead dust into the air, putting everyone inside at risk… especially children, pregnant women, and workers.

If you or your tenants are experiencing any of the following symptoms, it may be due to lead exposure:

  • Learning or developmental delays in children

  • Fatigue or irritability

  • Headaches and memory problems

  • Stomach pain, nausea, or vomiting

  • Muscle or joint pain

  • High blood pressure

  • Tingling or numbness in the hands or feet

  • Difficulty concentrating or sleeping

  • Pale skin or anemia

  • Behavioral changes or mood swings

How Superior Removes Lead Safely, Legally, and Without Disruption

Our Certified Lead Abatement Process Includes:

  • Lead Inspection & XRF Testing

    We begin with lead detection using X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzers or certified swab testing to confirm contamination and assess risk across surfaces.

  • Containment & Safety Setup

    All affected areas are sealed off with dust containment systems, HEPA-filtered negative air machines, and clear signage to ensure occupant and worker safety during removal.

  • Lead Paint Removal or Encapsulation

    Depending on the surface and location, we use wet scraping, chemical stripping, or EPA-approved encapsulants to safely eliminate or seal in lead.

  • HEPA Vacuuming & Final Cleaning

    Post-abatement, we use HEPA vacuums and damp-wipe methods to eliminate microscopic lead particles from floors, walls, and horizontal surfaces.

  • Clearance Testing & Documentation

    Every project includes clearance testing and full documentation that complies with EPA RRP standards and NYC Local Law 1, ideal for landlord compliance, renovations, or resale.
